Although figures under SPIE copyright do not need permission obtained for reprinting/adapting, the SPIE sources of those figures do need to be cited in the captions and included as complete references at the end of the chapters.

This expectation applies to figures from the authors’ own previously published works.

When an author submits a manuscript to SPIE Press for technical review, it is expected that the source for every figure that was not created for this manuscript is included in the Reference lists at the end of the chapters, and a citation is added to each caption of the “borrowed” or adapted figure. The publisher's website should address this if not, contact the publisher to confirm.

Figures that have been completely redrawn for the SPIE book often do not require publisher permission however, some publishers do require permission in this case.

The original publication agreement or transfer of copyright signed by the author and the original publisher will indicate the author’s rights and requirements for reusing an author’s own copyrighted material.

If an author intends to reuse previously published material they authored themselves, and the publisher did not specifically relinquish copyright, then permission is needed from the publisher.The reprinted material must cite the original source in the figure caption, in compliance with the wording of the publisher’s permission letter a blanket statement in the preface is not sufficient.In the case where a publisher also requires that the original author be notified, authors must also contact at least one author (usually the lead author) of the original material.SPIE Press authors do not need to obtain permission to reprint or adapt figures or tables from SPIE publications but do need to cite the SPIE source.Authors need to locate and follow the specific instructions provided by these publishers and may contact their SPIE editor if the instructions are not readily found for a particular publisher or source. Publishers that do not use the CCC to process permissions will state their permissions instructions on their copyright and/or permissions web page/s.An author account will need to be set up in CCC. With the abstract webpage open, look for the permissions link, which is often a button that reads © or Permissions or Get Rights and Content or Copyright or Permissions and Reprints, Tools, etc. The permissions portal is generally found on the publisher’s abstract webpage of the article, chapter, or book containing the figure or table of interest.

Many publishers grant reprint permission via the Copyright Clearance Center (CCC). Permission is required for reuse of all copyrighted figures and tables, whether reprinted as in the original publication, or adapted by the author for the SPIE Press book.Some publishers require several weeks to process permissions requests, and some requests involve a payment, so publisher permissions should be obtained early, at the time of writing and selecting figures, to avoid potential delays or changes to the book farther along in the process. However, we do have guidelines that will expedite the process and create a higher-quality book.Īs stated in the publication agreements made with SPIE Press, authors are responsible for obtaining all necessary reproduction permissions or licenses from publishers. Formatting will be done as part of the production process. You aren't expected to turn in a print-ready manuscript.
